tv show episode: FPS fans do it for real.
Anybody remember which police procedural series this comes from? People are being killed, and eventually it's found out that they are all fans of the same First Person Shooter game. It turns out a couple of dodgy dudes contacted some of the more active players and set it up in real life. Each contestant pays an entry fee, last one to survive wins. Somehow they manage to get several interested players without anybody reporting it :dubious:
One of the "rules" is that you're safe on a bus, so one guy gets scared and stays on a bus 24/7, as apparently there's no opt-out afterwards and nobody breaks the rules by killing him on the bus anyway. The eventual winner is a woman, who the dodgy dudes murder instead of paying her out.
